The statement above is FALSE.
Pitch refers to the highness or lowness of a sound. The pitch of a sound depends on the frequency of that pitch. The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch and the lower the frequency, the lower the pitch. Thus, if an observer is hearing a rise in pitch that means the frequency of the waves in that position are increasing.
